One man we’ll call “Joe”, a sanitary specialist who cleans out porta-johns, was less than enthused to hear about the forecast.

“It’s like going into a sauna…after a couple of minutes, you’re all soaking wet,” said Joe.

Sergio is another local worker with a dirty job — but he has a solution.

“Go where there’s plenty of water,” he said. “Best thing is working out in Malibu.”

But while some people dread triple-digit temps, others said it isn’t really that bad: Ron Farnham, who originally hails from Florida said he doesn’t really consider heat here in L.A. to be the same as East Coast heat.

“In Florida, it might be a hundred degrees and over here in California it could be a hundred degrees with low humidity,” he said. “In Florida, I can just stand on my back porch and sweat by doing nothing.”

Forecasters say doing nothing may be your best bet — at least until cooler temps return on Sunday.

.staying out of the sun….hydrating whenver possible….and hanging on until Sunday …..when the temperatures are supposed to drop..
